About the Ultimate Ears MEGABOOM

Bring BIG sound everywhere

True to its name, the Ultimate Ears MEGABOOM packs a powerful punch. Your phone or tablet supplies the tunes wirelessly as the speaker pumps out party-fueling 360° sound. It goes all night long with up to 20 hours of battery life. But this beast of a Bluetooth speaker can also travel anywhere.

Bring BIG sound everywhere

The UE MEGABOOM (pictured in blue) is IXP7-certified waterproof, delivers 360° sound, and keeps the party going with 20 hours of battery life.

True to its name, the Ultimate Ears MEGABOOM packs a powerful punch. Your phone or tablet supplies the tunes wirelessly as the speaker pumps out party-fueling 360° sound. It goes all night long with up to 20 hours of battery life. But this beast of a Bluetooth speaker can also travel anywhere.

First off, it weighs less than two pounds. It's also cleverly designed — you can grab and carry the speaker as easily as your favorite beverage. And the UE MEGABOOM is stain-resistant and IPX7-certified waterproof. That means you can enjoy it at the beach, the pool, or even while relaxing in the tub or shower.

Pair up and party with 100 feet of Bluetooth range

While the UE MEGABOOM excels on bass-heavy tracks, this speaker can handle your whole playlist. Just press play. Two 2" full-range drivers cover the highs and mids, while two passive radiators reinforce the low frequencies. Meanwhile, you can just set the speaker down, then move around and mingle. With up to 100 feet of wireless Bluetooth range, you're not tethered to the speaker with your phone.

Listen in stereo or double the volume

Still not enough boom? Wait, really? Okay. With the Ultimate Ears MEGABOOM app for iOS® and Android™, you can stream simultaneously to two MEGABOOMs and nearly double the volume. Or use the app to make them a stereo pair for a really fun listening experience. The app also lets you adjust EQ or set an alarm.

You gonna answer that call?

If someone calls and interrupts the music, you can answer it right on the MEGABOOM. It doubles as a speakerphone. Give your friends directions, ask them to bring more ice, and get back to the tunes. You'll hear the person on the other end clearly, and the MEGABOOM's built-in microphone lets you talk to them with ease.

I've owned the original UE Boom for a while now and love it. Still, I wanted a bit more bottom end when using the speaker in larger spaces and this speaker delivers just that--even without boosting the bass in the EQ. Great sound, great value!

Love this thing!

I love this thing. I use it when I'm grilling or doing anything outside and want some tunes. I'm a bit of a metal head, and the sound coming from this little speaker is impressive. It keeps a charge for quite a while. Plenty of power. I just bought one for my father-in-law for Christmas b/c I like mine so much (this review is actually for the one purchased for my FIL; bought mine maybe 2 years ago... still going strong). I've never used it where it would get wet or anything, but I have no reason to suspect the water resistance would be lacking. Been extremely happy with it.
Thanks, Crutchfield! Awesome products and service as always. It's hard to find this type of customer service with pretty much any company these days, and this is why I keep coming back to Crutchield (even if it costs a bit more than somewhere else).

Pros: Small, lot of power, easy connectivity, can be paired with a second megaboom, very portable, nice case for it

Cons: Getting the flap open to charge is a little difficult, but I'm sure it's that way for water resistance. Use something blunt and thin to get in there or you may break your finger nail. Live and learn.

Great sound

I love these speakers. They are close to the sound of my audiophile Home Theatre System. I am blown away by how good 2 of these paired sound. My only issue is the App needs work. Sometimes after turning them off I have to go through the entire setup all over again and I do have the Sticky Setup checked. Especially when I walk out of range with a speaker. That is a pain. The speakers though are awesome for their small size. Dayle was a great help trying to get them to stay paired. Uninstalling and re-installing the app helped for a day or so. Then after turning them off and trying to turn back on, I had to go through the whole setup again. Please have them fix the app!

Ultimate Ears MEGABOOM

I tried this by my pool and after getting it a little wet it stopped working, I let it dry off and attempted to recharge the battery it played for a few minutes then stopped working .
I want to stress that it was only splashed on a little wet and this was supposed to be a waterproof speaker.
Very dissapointed

Good big brother to the original UE Boom

I've owned the original UE Boom for a while now and love it. Still, I wanted a bit more bottom end when using the speaker in larger spaces and this speaker delivers just that--even without boosting the bass in the EQ. Great sound, great value!

Ultimate Ears MEGABOOM

The speaker itself was supposed to be louder than the UE Boom speakers, because they are the next size up. However I compared it to the little UE Boom one we have at home and it is not any louder than the little UE Boom.
Could you tell me why that is?
I was expecting bigger speaker, bigger sound.

Ultimate Ears MEGABOOM

I just got the speaker charged up and tuned to my phone and what great sound came out of this speaker the bass is more then I could have imagined ! Glade I bought this one and I thought my other speaker was good . Very Fast Shipping thank you ??Kev.

Great upgrade.....

Awesome sound, and the new app is incredible to be able to access an Equalizer, also got features like turning the sound OFF the speaker , when I turn it on, my other smaller UE boom, never got that figured out, and it was annoying sometimes. Great on the jobsite, or at home during a power outage in Haiku....

Ultimate Ears MEGABOOM

This is the second UE speaker I've owned, and once again I'm very satisfied. This speaker is extremely loud, and has a very crisp sound even at max volume. It has good bass, but could be better. That is the only reason it's not a five star for me

Wow!

Admittedly, haven't had a lot of opportunity to play around with it, but is sure pumps out the jams! Very detailed, nice base, but not "boomy"
I've always had problems syncing various blue-tooth devices, this was a dream! Nice app on my I-Phone to control volume, etc.
This is a keeper!

Seriously the best

Killer sound, amazing battery life, super durable and portable. A steel at the sale price! My brother has a Bose soundlink and we tested them side by side and agreed that overall the UE Megaboom was the winner. You won't be disappointed.

A fine speaker

This is a fine speaker. It delivers clear, loud sound. It's waterproof and goes well in my bathroom while I shower - I don't worry about it being damp or even wet. It takes up a tiny amount of space, just three inches square. It pairs easily with my iPod. Its battery lasts many hours. It recharges quickly. It's easy to handle and move - my hand fits around it. It has a friendly drumbeat sound to respond when I turn it on or off. Crutchfield delivered it in just a few days with no shipping charge. It's my second UE Boom speaker - I like the UE Boom so much that I bought the UE MegaBoom

Ultimate Ears MEGABOOM

Great wireless speakers. These are my second set (2). The first set are UE Boom (first generation). Other reason for the purchase is price. The only caveat is the UE Megaboom APP. To me hard to navigate or use the App.

Battery is not durable, very disappointed

I may have used this product six times over the course of a year and a half and it will not hold a charge. That would not be so bad, if you could just replace the battery without having to solder. Very disappointed in this product and brand.

Fooled me!

I arrived home and heard my wife watching a movie on our big home theater system, only to find out she's actually watching her tiny laptop and the only audio was the UE MEGABOOM! This thing cranks. Thanks, Crutchfield!

Impressive Sound

These speakers are excellent! My fiancée and I are pretty much throwing our own wedding so I purchased two UE Megabooms with the idea of eliminating the DJ. They're very impressive in our nearly 8000 sq. ft. backyard. They play amazing highs and mids. However, this isn't the speaker for you if you want aggressive lows. I honestly don't think that they were made for deep bass. They stream exceptionally when our devices our connected to the WiFi at home. The app is easy to manage and it is very impressive to hear the 360° sound and how clear it is the further you are from the speakers. I absolutely love this product and yeah, they're a little pricey, but it's well worth it!

Best compact/portable speaker i've ever heard

i purchased ONE "mega" for my wife as a gift for Christmas (we enjoy our music in the outdoors and, until now, have had very limited quality of sound). IMMEDIATELY after hearing it in and around the house i ordered 2 more! The sound is superior to any single unit that i have found in the past (and i consider myself an Audiophile)! A simple rotation of the speaker, or just moving around a bit, increases the range of frequency to extents i have never found in such a compact device. Simply put, you MUST hear it to believe it! We discovered with two, in tandem, not only was the sound quality/level increased but stereo achievable. You MUST try! With Crutchfield's guarantees and great customer service reputation, how could you go wrong?!

Defective product, good customer service

Product arrived on time. After opening the box, the product came with a nice protective cylindrical box. The product itself had a good rugged feeling. After downloading the UE app for iphone, the full connectivity took little longer than expected. The equalizers within the app, is ok and does not have wide range to choose from. I tested the megaboom with different kinds of music. I would rate the product above average in terms of quality of music output. Considering the high price for a speaker, I was expected better low frequency response but it was ok. The primary reason for low rating is that the product won't charge (even through overnight charging) and yet the display on my iphone UE app and "+/-" touch on device said it is at 40%. The speaker eventually died after few hours of operation. I couldn't figure out the tap functionality (I tried couple times) as I was too focused on the charging issue. The one star is for Crutchfield's quick customer service response and easy return.

Nice Bluetooth speakers

Good product
Bought two to run in stereo which works fairly easy with the UE app. (Why I chose these after research)
Speakers seem to run forever on single charge, sound quality is rich and full. Was a bit disappointed with total volume, am concerned that sound will not be loud enough for outdoor patio come summer ?
Good value at speaker sale price.
Marginal if paying full bust out retail.

Pros: Excellent battery life on single charge
Capability to use 2 speakers in stereo
Rich sound quality

Ultimate Ears MEGABOOM

First, I am also soooo grateful to Crutchfield; they really got me the item within 2 days! TWO TWO TWO! And I live in the US Virgin Islands. I could not believe my eyes.
This speaker gives great sound!! I absolutely love it. I would have loved a volume control button on the device itself.

Does not work with UE Roll as of 12/2016

Actually, I like this device, but it was purchased to work with a UE Roll, which it did until the latest firmware update. Logitech decided to pull the rug out from under all the "mixed speaker" users. This device no longer works with the UE Roll. As for the Boom, buyer beware. Logitech can ruin your day with the next software release. I just spent a hour with their tech support. Conclusion: "Tough, you cant roll the update back and we're not changing it." Don't you hate it when a respected company leaves you out in the cold with an update and doesn't care.

Ultimate Ears MEGABOOM

It's been a year since l bought my UE Megaboom and it is absolutely the best investment I've made on any bluetooth speaker! I originally got it to use around the house, but when I realized how great the sound was I decided to try it at work and got great results. I use it every day at an average of about 8 hours a day at home and at work in an elementary school cafeteria kitchen with the volume cranked up almost all the way. I found that listening to music with clear sound is an excellent way to get our crew and student helpers in good work moods. A definite plus for the workplace! With my usage a full charge will last me almost 2 days . This speaker has the ability to fully charge in a little more than 2 hours while in use. It is also very durable outdoors in windy and rainy weather when I'm doing yardwork or washing the car. The waterproof feature comes in very handy when I need to give it a light scrub down every so often to keep it looking brand new like when I first received it. The UE Megaboom delivers great sound for its size and must personally heard to fully appreciate it. Along with purchasing this product I have also received surperb customer service and support from Crutchfield and the Ultimate Ears company. I use the speaker to stream a wide range of music from hard rock, to entertaining dinner with background music, to putting our two kids and us to sleep at night with spa relaxation sounds. It is by far the best bluetooth speaker out there. It's awesome!

Great For purpose

I picked this particular model because of one of the reviews that suggested it was perfect for its use and told me to ignore the criticism of the audiophiles. I would echo that same sentiment. If you were looking for perfect sound outdoors, then you need powered to outdoor speakers and not a Bluetooth unit. However if you're looking for good sound by the pool, the ocean, or any other reasonable outside expectation, this is a fantastic choice.

Outstanding

This is an outstanding product. The sound is rich, with lots of volume, and surprisingly good bass. Honestly, you won't believe that sound that good can come from a speaker this small. It is worth the money. I am buying another.

Pros: Portable, doesn't need an internet connection or wifi to play - you can stream using bluetooth directly from your phone. Great sound.

UE Megaboom

I bought my first UE Megaboom at a cell phone store. After listening to half a dozen other offerings I chose the Megaboom. It had the frequency coverage I wanted, the volume I wanted, and pairing it with my phone was no problem at all. One thing the Megaboom had that no other offering had was a filling low end. The bass and mid-range of this speaker was far better than anything else offered, and that included two top of the line name brands. The clarity is remarkable, again smoking the competition.
After hearing that there was an app that allowed me to pair with another megaboom I bought my second one from Crutchfield. That alone should tell you how much I liked the first one. The app works well, and I am really enjoying having music throughout the house.

UE Megaboom!!! lives up to its name.

Have had our blue Megaboom as the primary speaker in husband's '88 Mazda Truck. It's been in the boat 3 times, and camping twice. Ran it allllll day while fishing in the morning, skiing and tubing around noon till 4 pm and fishing again till dark. About 16 hrs of jamming, never had to recharge.
Excellent product in every fashion. Thanks Crutchfield!!! Mine was a Sweepstakes Win BTW.
A Fine Virginia Company and a Very pleased Virginia family!
Humbly yours,
Amy H.

We're sorry the USB cable was missing - it is typically hidden in the base of the Megaboom's storage case. Kelli (from our Customer Support team) read Kate's review and immediately contacted her. We've sent out a replacement cable.

Ultimate Ears MEGABOOM

I bought 2 speakers and was please with the loudness after linking them up. It does take some time to link them up because you have to download and app but fairly easy. I did run into trouble on the 2nd time using the speakers trying to link them, but once linking all was good again.

Cool features, does not deliver on sound; not worth price

I've only had this for one week. I'll say that I like the packaging/carrying. case it comes in. Though I believe the carrying case is a little bulky, and could have been made smaller so as to not take up so much room in a bag of packing for a weekend trip, camping, or whatever.
-I love the battery time. I didn't use it for the 20 hours continuously as it claims to have, but def used it for several hours without needing a recharge.
-I really like the loop which it has on the one end where you can set it up on a camera tri-pod. I used the loop to hang it so it doesn't take up counter space or could get knocked over easily.
-As far as sound, I have an untrained ear, but for the money, I thought it ought to be able to pack a little more umphf! All I have a is Bose Sounddock (original version) to compare it too, and the Bose is way better. But my Bose is not portable or waterproof.
All in all, I purchased it with a gift card I received, so I'll most likely end up keeping it.

Pros: Cool features- especially loop so you can hang, or set up on tripod so it's out of the way.
Other reason I bought is because we do a lot of boating, so the fact that it's waterproof was the big draw for me (though I did not test this feature). Otherwise, I would not have opted for a cheaper option.

Cons: Sound quality isn't as great as I hoped for at this price for the unit.

AMAZING!!

This speaker is absolutely AMAZING! I can't believe the clarity that comes out of it. When connected to Bluetooth through my iPhone, I can also control the volume and the equalizer. I'm definitely recommending this to my family & friends....but I'm sure the speaker will speak for itself "pun intended" when they come by for our next pool party!

Great sound

The UE MEGABOOM have a great sound, very long battery life and a cool look. it connected to my IPhone immediately. This is a bigger unit but still very portable and the supirior sound worth the extra size. the only reason i didn't give it 5 stars is no phone charger. i would have loved to have in it a phone charger because i run out of battery on my phone streaming music while the UE battery is still full.

What else to be asked for?

A friend had bought 3 UE Mega Boom Box for us before going on vacation. Went to the USVI St. Thomas with friends. We had such a wonderful time. I was bringing my box at Megan's beach and anywhere we went around the island. So cool to listen to music inside of the jeep.
So grateful and happy to receive a present which I had only thought to buy. Wishes granted. Thanks.

Great. Not perfect

Not as loud as I expected. Bass is thinner than I expected. Just to compare, a Sonos 1 is just a little bigger, but has sound qualities 300% better. That being said, I would buy the product again for its durability, battery life, ability to always know how much battery percent you have left and most importantly the awesome waterproof abilities.

The product works great but Logitech made me regret my purchase

I bought this as a Christmas gift for my girlfiend and it arrived promptly but had an internal defect. The sound was muffled and it made a poping sound everytime it went to the next song. I decided since it was a manufacture defect I should send it back to the manufacture. That was my mistake. I went to their website they had an email link so I sent them an email. About a week later I finally got a response. They asked my to try a few things like turning it off and on again and others it still wasn't working right so I replied back. Another week goes by they ask for copy of my receipt so I sent that off. No response so I send another email asking what's going on. I get an email back saying I have been forwarded to their highest level of customer care and I will be getting a ra# in 24-48hrs if approved a week later after several more mails I get an email that I'm aproved and ra# will come in 24-48hrs. I sent my 1st email on December 26th I finally got the defective speaker replaced February 3rd. I got several emails asking about my satisfaction and even a survey not once did anyone even respond and say they were sorry about their incompetence. Over a month to do something that should take a hour at the most. If you buy this item you will probably have better luck dealing with Crutchfield since Logitech the company that makes ultimate ear doesn't care about you or their product. If I had it to do over again I would've bought the jbl oh well

Pros: If the speaker works well out of the box you're fine. Don't expect any help from Logitech on waranty repairs.

Cons: Logitech's customer service department is totally incompetent and they couldn't careless about their products or customers.

Top Notch

I recently upgraded from the original UE Boom speakers and these Megaboom speakers do not disappoint. The sound quality, range, portability, and battery life are all top notch. Bottom line, if you are looking for the best bluetooth speakers on the market, look no further than the UE Megabooms.

Pros: Double Up Feature
Sound Quality
Bluetooth Range
Battery Life

Cons: Once in a great while when the speakers are doubled up, the audio will occasionally drop off, which was also a minor issue with the original UE Booms

great little-ish speaker

i bought this speaker for my boyfriend so that he could have a portable speaker, but one that is loud enough for a large PA backyard. he has tested out it's loudness (without me present) and said that it was really loud. i have heard it at 50% and it was quite loud; we needed to lower it because my cats did not seem to like the sound. its just small enough to take around too. he is buying a case to be able to bring it while biking. the app is great and the speaker can be turned on and off with the app.

ue megaboom

purchased this to replace my JBL Charge which has seen better days. Had to send first one back battery would not charge (it happens). Replacement has worked fine very great sound as a drive a truck all day with no radio. Battery life is great listen to it 8 to 10 hours a day no issue . Only have 2 minor issues wish there was a battery indicator on speaker itself and case to keep it in when carrying about. But these are minor issues and do not distract from the overall product of great sound

Megaboom-boom

We bought it because it is water proof and so we could have it on the boat without running the boat batteries down along with being able to throw it in the beach bag when sitting on the island when the water cools down. Great match to the iPAD mini music source - exceeds our expectations.

Ultimate Ears MEGABOOM

Great sound out by the pool, don't have to worry about it getting wet. Battery was half charged when received took about 2 hours to be fully charged and lasted for 3 days by the pool over the holiday weekend.

Great product, everything it says it is!

This product does everything that is advertised on it and exceeded my expectations. Well worth the money, quality, easy to use, great sound! Don't think you could find anything compareable. Totally satisfied !

UE Megaboom

Cons: Only con is the ease of switching between multiple bluetooth connections - you have to reset the speaker by holding power + down volume.The speaker can only hold a set number of pairings / switches between pairings.

UE Megaboom Purple

I bought this as a replacement for a FUGOO Tough, swiped by my firstborn as he went to college. It's loud, light and well designed. I like the small form and equalizer app. The battery is enough for a full day at the beach.

Portable Booming Sound

I like that it is smaller in most cases compared to many Bluetooth speaker products that are out in the market today. Allowing the customers selective colors to choose from is a good option For the size and weight of such speaker, the battery seems to last a pretty long time @ a fairly high volume I'm also intrigued that two speakers can be connected to one device to act as the left and right speaker.

Pros: Light Weight for the Quality of Sound/Product
The shell or body, is pretty durable
-One of the specification I find nice is that it's waterproof.
-BIG button display for +/- volume
-Quality sound & bass for the size of the product!

Cons: -Unable to seek/rewind from the speaker to the device it's connected to while in Bluetooth.
-I believe or suggest that there be a sturdy possibly retractable band to carry the speaker around without having to be stored in the shell casing to move about.
-Whatever selective colors that are available for one size speaker should be available for all sizes (UE Mini Boom, Boom, & MEGABOOM)
-I find that the Bluetooth signal to source device does not reach 100ft or even really close from my experien

Great!

Im very happy with this product!!! It is built very very well, and appears to be very sturdy. The volume is solid and it does a pretty good job at high levels. The weight isnt too bad, and the size is big enough for sound, but small enough to travel.

Pros: Good build, Loud, Good sound, Portable, Slick.

Cons: Only con is the ease of switching between multiple bluetooth connections - you have to reset the speaker by holding power + down volume.The speaker can only hold a set number of pairings / switches between pairings.

Be aware of this one deficiency

I have two of these, and I really like them, but.they operate with Bluetooth, and when a human body gets between the iPhone/iPad and Megaboom, the connection breaks momentarily.
So, keep the iPhone and speakers out of the path of fellow humans. Perhaps keep them high up if you're going to have a lot of people around. If it is just you in a room, no problem.
Plus, you cannot carry the iPhone in your pocket and walk around, because when you turn so that your body is between your phone and the speaker, guess what! The connection breaks momentarily.
It is a sucky issue with an otherwise superb product (great range, great sound-I use them outdoors). I suspect this is also an issue with other Bluetooth speakers.

Not so impressed

I received this speaker a few days ago and have been impressed with the battery life and volume. I listen to a wide variety of music and was a bit underwhelmed with the audio quality of this speaker. At lower volumes it definitely suffers the least desirable audio quality. Sounding just "ok" and not very clear or crisp. This improves when you crank the volume up, but it is then not at an ideal volume for everyday listening. I feel this would be perfect for a BBQ or party due to the volume. I am not a bass head, but this does ok in that department. The bass seems to sound best when near a wall or corner. What I was in search of was a speaker that could reproduce clear vocals, acoustics, etc. Currently this does not meet my expectations in that department. If the acoustics were better the price is justifiable, but at this price not worth it. My old Kicker amphitheater sounds way better by a mile at the lower to normal listening volumes, in all departments of audio quality. But then again the Kicker does not have the pick up and go portability. The Jury is still out on whether I will keep this product. Not sure all the other pros can outweigh the audio quality.

Pros: Battery life, Portability, Build quality, and definetly volume. It can get loud.

Cons: Audio quality lacking, mainly in reproducing vocals and acoustics, even after using the available app to adjust the higher end audio frequencies. Price is definitely not justifiable.

great for the boat

I bought this to take on my boat-now I can listen to music while cruising around and like the fact that it can get wet as well. My only complaint is the case it comes with is terrible-it never closes right or stays closed. If you buy this just be careful carrying it and dont trust the handle on the case or the latch on the case. The actual speaker works great with my iphone-nice crisp loud sound. It wont match your high end stereo but for most it will be great especially , if like me your boat , did not come with a sound system.

UE Megaboom

I have only had one other bluetooth speaker--Bose--and this UE Megaboom blew the Bose away, mostly in overall sound quality especially the bass response. Coolness factor an additional big plus. Still getting used to the slightly larger size/weight but the tradeoff in awesome sound quality well worth it.

Great product

I bought a pair of these to use on a large scale model train that pulls passengers. I previously used a set of UE Booms so I was familiar with the attributes of the product. Pairing two speakers is what sold me on them in the first place.

Pros: The extended range of these gives more flexibility with placement and the additional battery life is a plus.

Cons: I only wish they were louder as I use them in an outdoor situation.

Outstanding Speaker

This is a great speaker, sounds great, looks great and easy to pair with your Ipad or phone. How do they get this much sound from such a small speaker, great base, mid range and highs. Wish I had another so I could take advantage of the ability to use two for stereo. Also like the UE Megaboom app.

Dig My MegaBoom

Works as promised. Sound quality is excellent for the size; people are invariably impressed when I use it. Loud enough to fill the whole backyard with a single speaker. Easy to connect and use. Crutchfield was excellent too - filled order fast and shipment arrived sooner than I expected.

Purple power

Wanted this speaker for a while and did not disappoint, I would highly recommend this speaker and this website, I originally ordered this off of the UE website and after two weeks it still had not even shipped!! What good is a speaker if I can't use it? Crutchfield came in clutch and it was at my house two days after I ordered it. Will definitely order all audio equipment from here from now and and so will all of my friends.

Pros: Love the waterproof, the ring on the bottom, the battery life and the ease of use, no problems connecting to any devices, great Bluetooth range, just an overall awesome speaker for indoors and out.

Cons: Not much for cons but I'd have to say the price is a bit much and the charging takes a little longer than I'd like but with such a long battery life I can't complain, only thing I would add to this speaker is a charge out feature.

Awesome Speaker

Battery life and quality are amazing. Good sound even in open areas. Larger than some portable speakers but the quality and waterproof nature easily outweigh this minor detriment. Have used it camping, at beach, on deck or patio and have been very impressed

Best portable out there

This is easily the best all around speaker out there. Sure it's expensive , but it sounds amazing, gets 20 hours on one charge and can be used where ever the music takes you. Great product and Crutchfield has great customer service. If you're looking for the ultimate travel party speaker, look no further. You won't be disappointed!

Volume Quality

The UE Megaboom has had no problems that hinder it in my opinion. The volume - no matter how loud - is still amazing quality ( perfect for a pool party or of such ). 10 out of 10. 100 out of 100. Best speaker ever!

UE Megaboom

Purchased this after listening to UE Booms that I bought my daughters for Christmas. It is larger and louder than the Boom, but I was disappointed in the sound. If you Crank it up, it gets muddy and slightly distorted at higher volumes. It is, however, well built and has nice features. Very portable and battery life is excellent. It is waterproof, so that is a big plus. I think overall, it is a decent portable player, but overpriced for the sound quality. You would be better off buying 2 UE Booms and pairing them for a little more money. I purchased the two for my daughter's.

Awesome bluetooth speaker

I have had portable speakers in the past and always been disappointed usually with quality of sound and a few with battery life. I wanted to buy a new BT speaker and researched thoroughly and this unit kept coming up as my match. I was hesitant because of the price. I was concerned I would be disappointed like the other BT speakers I have owned. I planned to return this unit because of price if I was unhappy at all. This is the best BT speaker I have owned. The sound quality is excellent. I am very very happy with the battery life. Note: I had issue with charging until I learned to turn on Bluetooth Smart to charge.
I use this unit more than I have ever used any of the other BT speakers e.g. attach to hiking backpack (wish a little lighter), vacation by pool, in bathroom in mornings, office, at GFs. This speaker does everywhere with me.
I thought about buying a second unit for the "double up" stereo sound, but cannot imagine carrying two of these units with me. And the sound is excellent with just the single unit.
I would higly recommend this purchase. It is well worth the money.

Fantastic Sound!

We bought two of the Megaboom speakers to "Double Up" together. One alone sounds great and two sounds even better! The hook at the top to hang them is a nice feature. The directions for doubling them together are not that good and it took me three days to finally get it to work.

Pros: Long battery life, slim design, great sound, syncing of two speakers together, hook for hanging

Cons: Double Up instructions aren't that detailed and took a while to figure out.

UE MegaBoom is great

I spent months watching YouTube videos and checking specs. I always research items like this to death before making a decision. Go out and do the research but what I have found is that I narrowed the devices down to two. The UE Megaboom and the Bose Mini. The Mini had better sound quality and for indoor use only it would be great but the fact that I will use this by the pool influenced my final decision to go with the mega boom for its water proof rating. One YouTube reviewer placed this is a bucket of water and it functioned perfectly after. I put this on a video camera stand next to my above ground pool so I can reach the volume controls from inside the pool. The loudness is excellent, the bass sounds are not as good as the mini but for outdoor use it is great.

Pros: Durability, water proof, battery life

Cons: Bass can be adjusted with phone app but not as good as it could be.

Great Sound

Had the Mega Boom for a week and so far so good. I use it near my pool and outside bar, loud enough to enjoy not so loud it would tick off the neighbors. I don't use the app after reading all the negative reviews, so I just turn it up or down using the big buttons or the volume on my ipad.

Amazing sound, well made!

The Logitech UE Megaboom Bluetooth speaker is probably the best sounding portable speaker I have ever heard. Superb base, (as well as mids and highs) Great battery life, very well made. About the only bad things I can say are the sttep price tag (although well worth it once you have heard it!) and my 15 year old keeps stealing it because it sounds so much better for anything else he has ever heard. Thinking about adding a second one ASAP!

Pros: Sound, Sound, sound, battery life, ease of use.

Cons: Cost (more than I really wanted to spend, but well worth every dollar!)

Very Good even if quite expensive

Compared to the JAWBONE Big Jambox, this speaker has a much cleaner sound at high volumes!

Pros: Very durable. Relatively clean sound for a water resistant speaker. It is quite a bit louder on full volume than I expected and the equalizer helps you to customize the sound even more when the speaker is being used with extreme bass levels.

Cons: Pricey. Otherwise, the Logitech App that updated the firmware is in transition. The firmware has a bug and you'll need to either call Logitech or look at their forums to find out how to get around the issue. The issue deals with charging the speaker the first time. Once you get past that initial problem things work great!

Bigger is better!

I have the UE Boom from Crutchfield...liked it.......MEGABOOM blows it away! More than loud enough. I've bought 4 small speakers before this one trying to get the right one.....this is my favorite of all

Pros: Great bass and sound, easy to carry, like and bought the red. Crutchfield delivered when they said they would.

Cons: only one.....I could not figure out how to sync the UE Boom with Megaboom. OH WELL....not a biggie.....I would probably never do that anyway because plenty of sound out of the Megaboom alone

Megaboom = Mega Happy

After reading the reviews I had pretty high expectations, but I must confess the UE Megaboom exceeded them all. It looks, feels and most importantly sounds really good. The instructions are somewhat minimal, but you don't have to be a rocket scientist to figure everything out. It connects easily to all of my Bluetooth devices and the design makes it easy to set up and use practically anywhere.

Pros: Design, construction and Sound!

Cons: The USB power cable to recharge it could be a bit longer, and it and the plug are a hideous color. It's not a big deal, but just seems odd since everything else about the UE Megaboom seems so well thought out and tastefully designed.

EU Megaboom - Awesome!

If you're looking for a Bluetooth speaker this is perfect. I use it all around the house, at the beach, in the garage, at work; it's perfect for everything. It's a bit pricy but I feel it's worth every dollar so far. No more playing music from my phone speaker. Best speaker/entertainment buy I've made in awhile.

Packs a Punch

I had been looking for a speaker I could take to the beach and for the boat. Most speakers that are water resistant suffer from poor sound quality. I saw this speaker and the reviews from multiple sources, and decided to try it. I have not been disappointed. Its tough, but the sound is crisp and clear, and for its size, the base is very impressive, even outside in the open air. The battery life is as advertised around 15 hours at a fairly high volume. Great Speaker, and worth the price.

Pros: Built for folks who want music outdoors without having to worry what mother nature will throw at you.

MegaBOOM - Great for what it is

The Megaboom is the perfect speaker for a pool, the shower, shop or small backyard as long as your expectations are not for Klipsch highs or Velodyne lows. This is NOT an audiophile grade speaker. It is a hand held, very water resistant little sound machine that you won't have to baby. It is plenty loud if you live outdoors in a subdivision. It will not go to a distortion level when maxed out but does go too loud if you have neighbors. Voice and guitar type music sounds slightly muffled when compared to a good set of speakers but the sound is very good when outside and you compare it to what a similar size radio from the past would sound like. I highly recommend it for anyone as long as you aren't going to compare it to you home theater system. If home theater sound quality is what you are looking for, this ain't it.

My MEGABOOM is my Polaris RZR Speaker

Pros: The UE MEGABOOM is built extremely rugged. Water proof. Good shape. Great sound quality. Portable. Can be paired with a second UE MEGABOOM. It's so easy to use the phone app to control every function of the MEGABOOM and makes firmware updates simply a breeze.

Cons: Not quite loud enough to be heard over running UTV engine, but paired with a second MEGABOOM, I'm sure there won't be any problems.

Happy so far

I did a ridiculous amount of internet research on bluetooth speakers before deciding on this one. My wife has a Bose Soundlink Mini and it has a great sound. No bluetooth speaker can compare to a great set of true stereo speakers so I dismissed all the "audiophiles" who felt it necessary to point that out. I also dismissed any complaints about size, weight or dimensions, because that's certainly easy to find out online and shouldn't be a "post-purchase" complaint. I've looked at, compared, and HEARD JBL, Bose, Infinity, HK, Denon, Beats, and several lesser brands. I chose this speaker because of the ruggedness, battery life (very impressive - Mine had over 20 hours), waterproof construction and more. Sound quality is such an individualized opinion, but I think this speaker holds its own well. Even from genre to genre it sometimes sounds better or worse than the Bose mini, but never dramatically one way or another, except at higher volumes, and I believe it handles that better. Its less directional than the bose and with the volume edge, outdoor friendly construction, and far superior battery life I think it justifies the hefty price. Very pleased.

So much better than the original Boom

I bought two of these to replace my original UE Booms, and boy are they so much better in every way. They are definitely fatter than the originals, but not much heavier. The bass is more pronounced, but there is room to improve with the lower frequencies.

Pros: Loudness, battery life, and longer wireless range.

Cons: Bigger size can be a little bulky, and the lower end frequencies can be distorted if turned up too high.

Utility Sound

I owned the JBL Charge 2 and really liked it but it left me wanting something more in terms of sound presence and loudness. I decided a more bulletproof build than the charge 2 provided was also important, and I was willing to spend more to get it. I took a leap on the megaboom because of everything I read. It arrived and I was excited to see if it lived up to its billing. The form factor, understated yet slick look, and solid build quality impressed me right out of the cylindrical box. At first listen, the megaboom sounded balanced and clear but something was missing. The MB provides a tight and generally bright, but basic sound. Although clear with a broader bass tone than smaller units like the charge 2, it lacked the airiness and clear frequency reaponse of other front projection devices I listened to. The more I listened however, the more I appreciated its 360 degree sound delivery. We have an open floor plan in our home with high ceilings. When this unit is placed centrally within the space, it sounds consistent at all angles as you move about. This design really lends itself well to a party atmosphere. The more I listened casually, the more the megaboom sound and presence appealed to me. Because of its build quality, portability, bluetooth range, and 360 sound experience, its value is in its utilitarian and flexible form. Add pretty good but not "amazing" sound, and you have a solid device. Is it worth 3 bills? Maybe. I think the megaboom will continue to grow on me.

Pros: Build quality. Seems rugged and capable as a portable device.
Great battery life and bluetooth range.
360 coverage makes delivers broad and generally good sound in social settings.
Improved bass response and loudness over its predecessor.
Ability to pair multiple mega booms for stereo seperation.
Portability.
Waterproof and tough enclosure makes it resilient under all conditions, which means it will last.
Firmware upgradeable.

Cons: No aptx support (although it could in a future firmware upgrade?)
Requires a second megaboom investment to get a stereo return.
A flat experience for audiophiles.
Bass quality drops off at high volume.
A little pricey. Premium construction with less than premium sound.

It's not bothered by the dampness in the shower. It gives great sound. It has a long battery life. It connects well with my iPad, and when I turn it off, the iPad goes off.

[ Tina Aug 04, 2018 ]

I am going to help work on my niece's beach house. It is three floors of concrete so the wifi does not extend throughout the house. Jess immediately suggested the Ultimate Ears as a great portable unit that can run for long hours off my iPhone. Continued research on the site revealed the UE Megaboom. Since I like to rock out to electric blues and reggae, I wanted maximum music output. This looks like it will serve my needs well!!

18 questions already asked

I've the version before the 2 along with Mega, there is quite a difference. Holds more bass and volume

[ GLENWOOD Sep 05, 2017 ]

A

I have the original UE Boom (not the 2 version) and the MegaBoom. MegaBoom has more bass, and a fuller sound, but I don't know that it is significantly louder (if volume is what you refer to as amount of sound). I prefer listening to the MegaBoom, but actually use the original Boom more since I carry it with me when I travel (doesn't take up much room in suitcase)

Yes, but the speaker seems to crackle and go in and out at times. You definitely lose some distance when they are both connected. The crazy thing about it is there are times when it connects together real easy and sounds great and others it is horrible.
I use mine with an iPhone 6.

[ DARRIN Aug 24, 2016 ]

A

Here is some helpful information from the product page. If you click the blue box that says keep reading you will find this info: With the UE MEGABOOM app for iOS® and AndroidT, you can stream simultaneously to two UE MEGABOOMs and nearly double the volume. Or use the app to make them a stereo pair for a really fun listening experience. The app also lets you adjust EQ or set an alarm. Hope that helps.

I always point the +- at the top towards the audience, but I have not experimented with other orientations. It is multidirectional and fills a large room nicely. An excellent speaker.

[ William Jul 16, 2016 ]

A

IOM anyway you position it it will work just fine

[ Mario Jul 15, 2016 ]

A

Point it at the audience. It has great sound but it will sound differently in different rooms due to acoustics. I've had it up as a tall speaker and on its side. Either way is fine. Experiment with it until you like the sound the most.

No the adapter is for charging it wont charge a phone with the mega boom battery

[ James May 21, 2015 ]

A

Yes

[ ELAINE May 21, 2015 ]

A

Unfortunately, no. The UE Megaboom uses a micro USB port for charging, and charging is very quick, but you cannot charge other devices from the UE Megaboom battery. Well, you could, but you'd have to drill some holes and get creative. Oh, and you'd have to void your warranty. ;)

Yes, once your phone is connected via bluetooth, you can use it as a speakerphone.

The plastic case it comes in for shipping is a pretty good carrying case. It probably could use a better carrying case. I've had good luck carrying it for weekend trips in the plastic case it is shipped in

[ Jacob Jun 12, 2017 ]

A

No, a carry case is not included with the UE MEGABOOM..

[ James Jun 11, 2017 ]

A

Yes, there is a carry case with a handle on one end. However, I only keep the Megaboom in the case for protection. I would not advise 'carrying' the case, as its closure is flimsy and doesn't close properly. I bring the speaker back and forth to our pool, so I put it all in a small gym bag.

Thanks for your question. For information on comparing two or more models I would recommend reaching out to an Advisor by phone (1-800-324-9695) or online chat. They will be able to help determine the differences and help you make the best choice for your system and your budget.
